    Document: As the COVID-19 is an evolving pandemic, the available data at the time of writing this paper on 31 March 2020 on COVID-19 morbidity and mortality for different boroughs in London was 30 collected from [23, 18] . The fatality rate across each London boroughs was estimated by dividing the number of reported deaths by the number of reported positive COVID-19 cases. The average air pollution data associated with NO2 and PM2.5 concentration was collected for London boroughs from [24] . Figure 1 ). In particular, COVID-19 fatality rate increased with increase in short-term air pollution, where a significant correlation 45 between COVID-19 fatality and NO2 and PM2.5 pollution concentrations with R 2 of 0.90 (fatality rate = 1.864+ 0.5787*NO2 level) and 0.67 (fatality rate = -7.733+ 2.3399*PM2.5 level) were found (see Figure 2 ).
